New Riders of the Purple Sage
Twenty Good Men
Dawson
Twenty good men who lived and died
Twenty good men went over the side
Twenty good men who could not abide
The bloody captain
Twenty good men who came to see
Living as a pirate was not free
Twenty good men who tried to flee
The bloody captain
Now captain, captain, do you get the feeling
Captain, captain, someone's following you
Now captain, captain, do you get the feeling
Captain, captain, someone's following you
Twenty good men with just one shot
Twenty good men with half a plot
Twenty good men who just got caught
By the bloody captain
Twenty good men of hundreds more
Twenty good men with friends ashore
Twenty good men and I've kept score
On the bloody captain
Twenty good men, eighteen good friends
And the other two were my brothers
And that's why I just ended the life
Of the bloody captain
